what one whole episode and that one being the worst ever (All New
Sooty)

I like Miki because she was Reaching Brand New Sooty Heights first
ever news story FIVE YEARS AGO back in our old group (keith can you
imagine this has been going for this long as you were an original
member)

Liana didn't got her contract renew for the new show and Vicki Lee
Taylor was brought in from Big Meg Little Meg and she is the perfect
fit if we must have a nearly equal boy/girl ratio in the cast.

I hope its Series 49 but i have a funny feeling it could be the
previous two 'retro-looking' puppet series. It was nice they had
puppets in the style of the ones first use by Harry Corbett but the
idea should had one be for Series 50. And the move to rehash old
Matthew Corbett scripts wasn't a good move without his knowledge.
Plus for the show in general to almost write out Little Cousion
Scampi all because he can't talk wasn't great either. And to include
more talk instead of action i still can't get.
But at the shows heart its Sooty and that won't change, no matter
how many bright primary colours they use for the set.

Personally am glad i have news to report on as filling the time with
Online Comic, You Tube and updating the Sooty News page slowly on
the main site takes alot of effort.

I make the effort to build up to the launch with the following
* Videos from the series "Sooty".
* Poll to find the favourite episode from "Sooty" with posting clips
to help people judge.
* Online Comic stories which begin to feature Miki.
* Write Vicki Lee Taylor's Helping Hands Profile.
* Write Better reviews for the episodes in Sooty"
* Add a Countdown Clock on the front page.

These are the six points i will make sure to follow before March 11.

Plus i hear Sooty's copyright has been updated for 2006 while last
year the update to 2005 took until March/April for the DVD Release.

for those people who are unable to view the promo airing in a loop
on freeview, here it is
